Traditional models of slideware assume that one presenter controls attention through slide navigation and on-screen pointing while a passive audience views the action. This paradigm limits group interactions, curtailing opportunities for attendees to use slides to participate in a collaborative discourse. However, as slideware permeates contexts beyond simple one-to-many presentations, there are growing efforts to shift the dynamics of collocated interactions. Technologies exist to shift the one-to-many information control paradigm to variations that extend functions to multiple attendees. But there is limited detailed research on how to design such multi-person attentional control and facilitate collocated \u00a0interactions without disrupting existing work practices. This article reports on a detailed naturalistic case of using a presentation in a design meeting. In the meeting, participants used Office Social, an experimental slideware technology that enabled open access to attentional control across multiple devices. We explore the extent to which the design of Office Social supported informal collaboration. Our video-based analyses reveal how the orderly structures of conversational turn-taking and bodily conduct were used in conjunction with the affordances of the socio-technical ecosystem in the room to organize collective activity. We suggest that supporting collocated interactions should take account of the existing conversational methods for achieving orderly collaboration rather than superimposing prescriptive technological methods of order.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
